Heat

by Hafeez ur Rehman

In waves of heat this summer
poor in sweat capsized,
true shades to rest were scant
and ways to home oblong.

In fatal strokes of sun
men noted retribution,
dog-days with even teeth
bite core of every wish.

In torrid times half-truths
like ice begin to melt,
it waters down a form
that winters bring to mind.

This heat ignites a will
deep inside my heart;
toss ciders of all dreams
in furnace of the fate.
